[Development Story]
The Ministry of Education of Japan recently began advocating the importance of “Information Literacy” as the next step for education. As a result the “Digitalization of Education” with ICT became a new goal for education. In the 2009 “School New Deal” policy, digitalized education with interactive white boards and dedicated devices for students became a new concept in education. Additionally, in “The 2nd Education Promotion Plan” in June 2013, a goal to implement interactive white boards for all classrooms in Japan was announced; in other words this is to promote the “digitalization of education”.
